Creative photography #9

This week I had more fun using effects. This is my entry into Roger's Creative Photography contest.
I enjoyed making the photo of this simple wooden clothesline pole the focus of some creative changes.
I don't really know what the judges are seeking, but I'm having fun sharing.

Here I used a purple hue:
Pink, anyone?
And the ever-popular oil painting effect:

Check out the contest and join in!
As always, I thank Roger for hosting.

That really is a great photo, no matter what effect you apply to it,

I can't decide whether I like the pink or the purple version the best! It was definitely a good subject to work with.

I'm still debating what to enter this week but I have a couple of ideas. I won't get to them until sometime Tuesday, though, due to Monday's work schedule being way out of control!

Good luck in the contest!

Lovin' the pink! Really enhances some of the features of the photos and "pops" them out almost in a 3-D effect! But overall, the photo you have chosen is awesome... I like the subject and overall backdrop of greenery... very creative! Good job, Patti!

Very cool. Interesting how the different colors are or seem to be picked up differently by the photo. I think the pink was my favorite - seemed to have more layers of color or something.

Patti,
Great run with the colors. I like your pink version. I wonder how it would look if you punched the level slide a bit on this image to pop out the contrasts and color?

best wishes in the contest!

that's great Patti.

I love the different effects but I favor the original most. The weathered look is so sweet and your composition is lovely.
